Issue
When using the Auto Arm Sked, the keypad shows a countdown timer counting down 30 minutes prior to arming.
Solution
Auto On Pre-Alert Time Nibble: 0233 Default: 6 (30 minutes) Selections: 0-15 (time = selection x 5 minutes; 0 = disabled) Parameter Description The pre-alert sounds before the Auto On Sked to warn users to exit or extend (Cmd 51) the auto arming.
At the Auto On time, the panel starts exit delay. See Sked Type for a complete description of the Auto On Skeds.
If the area is armed according to the scheduled arming state (All On or Part On) during Auto On Pre-Alert Time and then disarmed before the scheduled arming, auto-arming will not occur.

Issue
How to make the CMD's not require a passcode in programming?
Solution
Nibbles 0364 - 0378 put a 0 in for keypad programming or with RAM software in USER INTERFACE, sub menu Authority Level Configuration, make all commands DISABLE under Authority Level 1 - 4.
Issue
Panel history shows a failure 3.
Solution
If panel is programmed to do a history dump to WDSRP but failed to communicate via the phone line that is programmed for remote callback, the panel will initiate a failure 3 trouble.

Issue
Symptom
What would cause the programmer to display ( Plug in 7112) when you press send or receiver
Diagnosis
The programmer is not correctly connected to the D7112.
Solution
Verify that the data/power cord is plugged securely in the programmer port J4, on the D7112.
Verify that the data/power cord is plugged securely into the communicator port on the D5200 programmer
Check each conductor in the data/power cord for continuity
Part numbers D7112, D5200
Overview: When setting up D8112 panels for test reporting, the operator must be able to set the time for test time functions to work.
Issue
Why won't Command 45 (adjust clock) work on the D8112 panel?
Solution
Programming line 101 Clock, is set to NO. Change setting to YES to enable clock in panel programming with the D5200 or RPS.

Issue
Unable to enter into program mode whether using a passcode or shorting out the solder pins, and the panel is not locked out of programming mode.
Solution
Make sure the panel does not have a ground fault issue. The best way to tell is to check the following:
Take a voltage reading from aux power positive to Earth ground.
The voltage should read - 6.7VDC.
If the voltage is lower or higher than -6.7VDC, a ground fault is present.
The panel may indicated this trouble if it is turned on.
If the voltage is 0VDC - the ground fault condition is on the positive side of the panel
If the voltage is 13 VDC then the ground fault is on the negative side of the panel.
Leave the volt meter accross the terminal and start disconnecting wires until the voltage goes to -6.7VDC
Issue
D8112 Duress Passcode.
Solution
Duress Passcode
A duress Passcode is used to send a silent alarm signal to the Central Station simply by increasing the last digit of the Passcode by one. For example, if the standard Passcode is 12345, the duress Passcode is 12346. The duress Passcode arms or disarms the security system just like your personal Passcode; however, as the system is armed or disarmed an alarm signal is transmitted to the Central Station.
Application
The duress Passcode is used when someone threatens you and demands you to disarm your security system. By disarming (or arming) with a duress Passcode, the Central Station is alerted of an alarm situation.
